While writer-director Evan Oppenheimer's tale of love, sport and Italian culture captures the landscape with a pleasant sheen and certainly makes Florence look like a lovely vacation destination, its narrative contains little emotional pull and too few surprises.

What are critics saying?
The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck
What the film doesn’t have is anything resembling a compelling narrative.
Bland even for the armchair traveler, “Lost” is as inoffensive as a picture-souvenir booklet, and equally unmemorable.
The New York Times by Neil Genzlinger
The story may not stay with you, but don’t be surprised if you come away with a strong desire to visit Florence.
Los Angeles Times by Sheri Linden
A seemingly tourist-bureau-sanctioned travelogue posing as a romantic drama.
